<a name="index-reloc-directive"></a>
<p>Generate a relocation at <var>offset</var> of type <var>reloc_name</var> with value
<var>expression</var>.  If <var>offset</var> is a number, the relocation is generated in
the current section.  If <var>offset</var> is an expression that resolves to a
symbol plus offset, the relocation is generated in the given symbol&rsquo;s section.
<var>expression</var>, if present, must resolve to a symbol plus addend or to an
absolute value, but note that not all targets support an addend.  e.g. ELF REL
targets such as i386 store an addend in the section contents rather than in the
relocation.  This low level interface does not support addends stored in the
section.
